what kind of a cucumber is it?...from what I've read they like the english ones(long thin ones sold in celophane) as opposed to the regular cucumbers. Supposedly they are more tender and also seedless. Mine go as nuts as a milli can go for those ones!lol

I've only kept fire millipedes before, but they really liked english cucumber and organic baby greens. I cannot remember what else I fed them however  They supposedly go nuts for oak mulch, but I never had any luck finding some.

Linds, oak leaves can be found all year round because they don't drop off the trees until the new leaves start sprouting.
Brandon, oak leaves are another good thing to add to the tank because they contain chitin which is a supplement the milli needs for a strong exo skeleton....if you can't find a tree small enough to reach the leaves another option is to put white chalk in the tank..it contains chitin as well.
